"Being right on I-95 means freight never stops moving here. The school lined up interviews with a regional carrier before I even finished my road test."

Delaware CDL Requirements

Essential requirements to get your CDL license

Yes. The Delaware Division of Motor Vehicles (DMV) issues CDLs to drivers 18 and older for intrastate routes. To drive across state lines (e.g., into Maryland or Pennsylvania), you must be at least 21.

You must hold a valid Delaware Class D driver's license. The Division of Motor Vehicles (DMV) will review your driving history for suspensions before issuing a Commercial Learner's Permit.

Yes. You cannot obtain a CDL without a valid Medical Examiner's Certificate from a certified examiner. This must be submitted to the Delaware DMV and kept current on your record.

You must pass the written knowledge exams for your permit. The skills test covers the Pre-trip Inspection, Basic Vehicle Control, and the Road Test, administered by the Delaware DMV.

A DUI conviction, refusing a sobriety test, leaving the scene of an accident, or using a vehicle in a felony will disqualify you. The DMV checks your record through the national database.

*Requirements based on Delaware Division of Motor Vehicles (DMV) regulations as of 2026.
